Toby

Intro - acoustic guitar, ukulele

Verse 1

A tiny shadow, just three pounds of grace,

With eager paws, he'd set his hurried pace.

Not to the kitchen, but the bedroom's door,

Where hidden treats were waiting on the floor.

My little Chihuahua, full of spunk and glee,

A precious friend, so small yet wild and free.

He filled our home with joy, a tiny king,

The sweetest memories his bright eyes would bring.

Chorus

Oh, Toby, sweet Toby, my heart still knows your name,

For twelve bright years, you lit my life's soft flame.

Now running free, beneath a sunlit sky,

Your joyful spirit will never truly die.

Verse 2

Each morning sun, a ritual so sweet,

You'd greet me jumping in your basket, oh so neat.

A happy dance, a wagging, tiny tail,

Your loving welcome would never ever fail.

Through every season, loyal, brave, and true,

The simple wonders that you always knew.

A furry comfort, chasing shadows in the light,

You made each day feel wonderfully bright.

Chorus

Oh, Toby, sweet Toby, my heart still knows your name,

For twelve bright years, you lit my life's soft flame.

Now running free, beneath a sunlit sky,

Your joyful spirit will never truly die.

Bridge

Though sorrow lingers, mixed with tender sighs,

I see you soaring where no pain can rise.

Run free my little Toby, light and bold,

A promise whispered, more precious than pure gold.

I will see you some day, beyond the morning dew,

My beloved friend, forever I miss you.

Instrumental - ukulele, percussion

Final Chorus

Oh, Toby, sweet Toby, my heart still knows your name,

For twelve bright years, you lit my life's soft flame.

Now running free, beneath a sunlit sky,

Your joyful spirit will never truly die.

Outro

Now in a garden, beautiful and wide,

You're running free, with nothing left to hide.

No pain, no sorrow, just endless, happy play,

Until we meet again, my friend, some day.

Outro - guitar fade
